The Illuminated Donkey

In case you missed it, the World Wrestling Federation has lost its ongoing battle with the World Wildlife Fund, and is changing its name, logo, and stock symbol to reflect its new name: World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. Of course, according to company management, the lawsuit was only a tiny part of the decision:

As World Wrestling Federation Entertainment, we have entertained millions of fans around the United States and around the globe," said Linda McMahon, CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment. "Our new name puts the emphasis on the "E" for entertainment, what our company does best. WWE provides us with a global identity that is distinct and unencumbered, which is critical to our U.S. and international growth plans."

Mrs. McMahon said the company began considering dropping the word "Federation" from its name when World Wildlife Fund (a/k/a World Wide Fund for Nature) prevailed in a recent court action in the United Kingdom.

Coincidentally, I started to consider getting out and meeting new people after I was evicted from my apartment and my girlfriend filed a restraining order against me.
